My mind billows
In every direction
Flying into space
And sinking into oceans
In depths of sadness
And waves of emotions
My mind drags me high
And sinks me low
It attacks with violence
And loves with passion
It drives me crazy
And keeps me sane
My mind is my enemy
And also my friend
My only company
Surrounded by solitude
My mind is a kite
Flying in the sky
And an anchor
Keeping me
Alive

This poem of yours perfectly depicts a mind that has so much going on and yet our only storage of the memories that we experience throughout our lives 🙂

I really liked how you describe your highs and lows in your state of mind. I think my mind soars like a kite, but hadn’t thought of it as an anchor before. I would have had mine sinking like a stone in the ocean.
Maybe people close to me may be surprised how low my mood takes me. . . Your friends’ comments about your beautiful mind are spot on, Vonita. ❤

My mind does exactly the same Robin, also sinking in the ocean and it doesn’t come back up easily, but I am focusing on doing things that make me happy, like beach visits! I’m sorry to hear about your moods too xx
